About IVOMO
IVOMO is a Rwandan word that means “source of water” or “place to fetch”.
We do believe that through community interaction and culture sharing, we fetch from each other and from each other’s culture. We do all with and for the people, the reason for us to BE.
Our palette: Clean, natural/genuine, and simple organic colors make up Ivomo’s palette. Which reflects how Open, honest, and humble we are.
IVOMO is a social enterprise created with a purpose of improving community livelihoods through community-based tourism. IVOMO empowers local communities through responsible tourism in the South-West of Rwanda (Nyamasheke & Rusizi) and promotes inclusive tourism which prevails social inclusion and gender equality.
